Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Qing slightly raised her chin and looked at the Taoist priest coldly. The Taoist priest felt very uncomfortable under his gaze and could not help but tighten his grip on the yellow paper. Su Qing’s gaze fell on his hand, and the Taoist priest subconsciously let go, causing the yellow paper to fall.
“Alright, I’ll go.”
Su Qing said coldly when she saw the Daoist bending over to pick up the yellow paper. The Daoist’s expression was relaxed. He smiled and stood up straight. “Heavenly Lord Immeasurable, thank you, Empress, for sending Old Madam and Old Sir on their last journey.”
He was using his words to bind Su Qing firmly. She had no choice but to go. The guard captain was extremely anxious. He couldn’t stop them, so he was worried to death.
“Draw out the location of the Feng Shui Treasure Land. I want to know the exact location.”
Su Qing was not in a hurry to leave. She threw a pen and paper from the system to the Taoist priest, asking him to draw the exact location of the Feng Shui treasure land on the spot.
“Alright.”
The Taoist priest was surprised that Su Qing could conjure something out of thin air. He wanted to ask something, but his lips moved, but he did not dare to ask.
“Just like this?”
The Taoist priest looked around with the paper and brush. There was no table.
“Use the tombstone as a table.”
Su Qing ordered people to put down the tombstone. The Taoist priest had no choice but to squat on the ground and spread the rice paper on the tombstone to start drawing.
“This Feng Shui treasure land is on the Tibetan Horse Mountain in Lu County…” The Taoist priest drew as he spoke. Su Qing stood at the side and watched. Lu County was close to the border of Tartan. After giving the G.o.dmother and G.o.dfather the paella, they could go to Tartan to see Xiao Ying.
She hadn’t seen Xiao Ying for more than a year. She hadn’t even gone to see her give birth. This time, she would make up for it and visit her nephew.
Xiaoying had given birth to a son during her first pregnancy. Yelii Chun sent an envoy to the Great Tang Kingdom to report the good news, and his words were filled with uncontrollable excitement.
The Taoist priest finished drawing and handed the map to Su Qing. Su Qing looked at it and nodded as she took the map.
Su Qing ordered the guard, Xiao Ding,
Little Ding, tell Commander Cheng to bury these guards.”
“Empress, please let someone else go. I want to protect you and the emperor.” Guard Little Ding refused to leave. He was worried about the safety of the Emperor and Empress.
Su Qing walked over with her back facing the Taoist priest. Xiao Zeyu tacitly went over to ask about the details of the tomb, using his body to block the Taoist priest’s line of sight.
“Give this to General Cheng Yu. Tell him to do this…”
Su Qing ordered the guard, Little Ding, in a low voice. Little Ding was entrusted with an important task, so he didn’t refuse to return to find Cheng Yu. He took the map and put it in his pocket. He cupped his fists at Su Qing and said, “Empress, take care. Little Ding will go find Commander Cheng Yu to collect their corpses.”
After Little Ding left, Xiao Zeyu said to the Taoist priest,
“Can we go now?”
We have to leave. We can’t delay the auspicious time.”
The Daoist priest nodded and handed the red cloth bag containing the remains to Zhong Yong. He had said that he would leave immediately. Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu had brought their carriages. There were three carriages in total. Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu sat in one, Zhong Yong and Jiang Yuyan sat in another, and the Daoist priest sat in another. The guards were all riding horses.
On the way, Su Qing often went to the toilet. Every time she reached a fork in the road, she had to stop the car and go to the gra.s.s to relieve herself, which annoyed the Taoist priest.
Zhong Yong’s journey to his father’s grave was long and sad, taking him three days to travel from the bustling streets of Mo City. Throughout the journey, apprehension and solemnity weighed heavily on him. He was relieved to find the grave undisturbed upon his arrival, a rare mercy in these tumultuous times.
The moment the coffin was pried open, a profound sadness engulfed Zhong Yong. There, amidst the serenity of the grave, lay the broken bones of his father, positioned as if crying out to the heavens. The sight struck Zhong Yong deeply, stirring a well of emotions within him.
Xiao Zeyu’s eyes were also red, and he was holding back his tears. His father had also died without a complete corpse like Uncle Zhong.
After the Taoist priest finished his practice, he wrapped up Zhong Yong’s father’s remains.
“Are you going to wrap it up like this?”
Xiao Zeyu suddenly called out to the Daoist. Daoist looked at him in confusion.
“Your Majesty, how else can you wrap it?”
“I remember that my foster father once said that those who died from being split apart by a carriage had better put their bones back together. Otherwise, they would not be able to reincarnate.”
Xiao Zeyu looked at the Daoist priest with a burning gaze. Although he wasn’t proficient in this area, he knew little.
For example, when a person was beheaded, they had to find someone to sew the head back together with the body when they were buried. Similarly, a person who died from a carriage break had to be rea.s.sembled before they could be reincarnated. However, this Taoist priest did not know this.
“We’ll rea.s.semble it when he’s buried.”
The Daoist priest’s answer was very simple, but Xiao Zeyu’s expression was solemn as he told him to have it out now.
“Daoist Priest, please give it your all now!”
“… Fine!”
The Taoist priest answered reluctantly. He could only open the red cloth again and put the bones together piece by piece. Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing were patient, but Zhong Yong’s heart felt like a knife was cutting. He cried from the beginning to the end, kneeling in front of his father’s remains, kowtowing until his forehead was covered in blood.
It was still easy to piece together the large bones, but it was challenging to piece together the tiny pieces of bones. The Taoist priest was struggling. He did not know where to put the bones.
Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu looked at each other and communicated through their eyes.
It took the Taoist priest more than two hours to piece the remains together. Then, he continued to rush to Lu County.
Along the way, Su Qing often went to the toilet. The Taoist priest finally couldn’t help but ask the emperor,
“Your Majesty, what happened to the Empress?”
She s pregnant and can’t hold my pee.”
Xiao Zeyu’s answer was very natural. This excuse was also impeccable.
Pregnant women had a lot of urine and couldn’t hold it in.
“If this continues, the auspicious day will be delayed.” The Daoist priest looked troubled.
“It’s okay. You can walk faster when you’re on your way. It won’t delay anything.”
Xiao Zeyu replied indifferently. Since she had to go to the toilet, the Daoist priest had no choice but to return to his carriage and sit cross-legged with his eyes closed.
After long continuous stops, their carriage arrived at the foot of Zangma Mountain in Lu County.
Su Qing first went to look at the road boundary sign. Her eyes turned cold when she saw the soil under the road boundary sign.
Xiao Zeyu also saw it. He glanced at the Daoist. Daoist was currently carrying
the remains down with Zhong Yong and two guards.
On the way here, he had already bought two high-quality coffins. Since there were guards who could carry them up the mountain, he placed the remains in the coffins at the foot of the mountain and let the guards carry them up the mountain.
Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing walked at the back, while the Taoist priest walked at the front. As he walked, he shook the bell in his hand and occasionally threw out two pieces of yellow paper, muttering to himself.
Su Qing continued what she had been doing. She left marks all along the way up the mountain. A team quietly followed them up the mountain, not too far away from them.
After walking for almost half a day, they finally arrived at the Feng Shui treasure land the Daoist priest mentioned. Xiao Zeyu stood on a high hill and looked around. The Daoist priest instructed the guards to dig a hole.
You guys stay here and dig. I’m going to the toilet.”
The Taoist priest said to the guard and turned to leave.
Su Qing stopped the Taoist priest and said coldly,
“Taoist priest, you can’t leave now.”
“I’ll be right back. I have diarrhea.”
The Taoist priest clutched his stomach and frowned as if in pain. Su Qing took
a pill and threw it in while he was talking.
“What did you feed me?”
The Taoist priest panicked. The pill melted in his mouth, and he didn’t even have time to spit it out.
“Take care of the medicine for diarrhea. Finish the ritual first before going to the toilet.”
Su Qing looked at him expressionlessly.
‘Til be right back. I can’t take it anymore. I can’t take it anymore.”
As he spoke, the Taoist priest wanted to run into the forest, but Su Qing pressed his acupuncture point. The Taoist priest was so scared that his face turned pale.
“Empress, what are you doing?”
